Can anyone help Alice fulfil her Bucket List before she loses her fight with terminal cancer? Alice is just 15 years old but shows so much strength and courage through her blog.
Please take the time to visit her blog and see if there might just be something you or someone you know could her with.

Some of my bucket list
I contacted The Sun this morning and they are showing an interest in helping out. Waiting for a reporter to call.

- To design an Emma Bridgewater Mug to sell for charity
- To stay in a caravan
- To have a purple Apple ipad but I'm not really allowed to put that on here and mum is trying to borrow one
- To be a dolphin trainer (I can't do this one either now)
- To meet Take That
- To go to Cadbury World and eat loads of chocolate
- To have a nice picture taken with Mabel

That made me tear up a bit. It's lovely to see that people in the comments have already offered to help, including Cadbury World, and people offering caravans to whale watch. I hope she manages to do everything that she wants too, and still can.0

Thanks for posting. I really hope some of the things can happen for her. I've been struggling with a ton of problems lately and feeling a bit sorry for myself, then I read alice's blog and some of the comments and found myself crying for her and her family. Makes all my issues just fade into insignificance. Much love to Alice and to her family .0

I don't think i'd ever cope as well as these kids do if I was faced with the things they have to endure. They are all truly amazing!

What a beautiful girl inside and out she is

I really hope she can get everything ticked off her list. Let's hope the power of the internet spreads her dreams wide and far.
I can't help with anything on the list as I'm so far away, if there was a just giving site or similar I'm sure I could spare something.0 -

You could become a blood donor (if you are not already) or put yourself on the bone marrow register. But of course that's a personal choice and just because I do both I would not preach to others about it so won't say anymore on the matter. x
She really is amazing isn't she? You could always pop a card or little letter in the post to her or her sister. If you go to www.postpals.co.uk and find Alice P (her pic is one of a few along the top at the moment). There you will see a c/o address. Anything small, just a few lines to put a smile on her face. Even just what you've done today. So long as you don't mention her illness. She wants upbeat stuff.

I can't donate I'm afraid due to blood conditions (form of haemophilia)
I'll do the card though!

Wish i could help and i would go on the marrow list if i could but unfortunately due to my own ill health i can't....
As for the hair and massages contact some local beauty salons if you haven't already, they may be able to help out with a pampering session...;)
As for Kenya, yes Alice can't go there but you could in some ways bring it to her....Could Alice manage to go to a wildlife park, not the same i know but still good fun...Isn't there one in the South lakes?
Really hope she gets some of her wishes...0 -
